Yes doctors are all different. I was told not to gain more than 15lbs and then told if I didn't gain weight it was fine. I just couldn't LOSE weight. Well not more than a pound or two overall. Each doctor has a method and each patient has their own set of needs. Do what your doctor recommends. Just maintain reason with…

An addendum to the below, I have gained under recommended amounts while preggo (under my doctors care and after discussing it with them) but I had to be careful I was getting adequate nutrition.

Yea, I NEVER have a problem here. Ever. I never eat that crap. Free food is such a big deal for people. Why? Why is it when my office had pizza 7 different…

I've had 3 babies. After all 3 pregnancies my legs filled with water and in the hospital I was told I needed to drink water to eliminate it. (When you're preggo your body holds water, when you give birth is goes to yoru extremeties.) The more water I drank the faster it flushed out. I would suggest against any sort of…

If you want flavor, add a tiny bit of veggie stock, enough to cook out. If you want like garlic to stick or something. You could also "GRILL". Use a broiler pan or just stick heartier ones ON the rack with a sheet pan underneath the rack.

Silpat in the pan OR parchment paper OR parchment lined foil OR quick release foil. All will not stick and all add no fat :o) You can also do a foil pouch. I make Vinny's baby food by roasting in foil a lot. Makes carrots AWESOME.
